Photo paper used in large format printers can be divided into glossy photo paper and matte photo paper. Each kind photo paper can be divided into RC photo paper and ordinary photo paper according to different coating materials, in addition, it can also be distinguished by water resistance.
Commonly known as glossy photo paper, the surface is flat and smooth, there is a certain gloss, the printed image is rich in color, and the detail reduction is strong.
Matte photo paper, also called suede photo paper, looks lustrous and has some rough feeling, and the printed image is also clear when looking at the light, which is more suitable for enlarging photos or displaying photos.
RC photo paper texture can be comparable to glossy photo paper, but because the coating is made of nanomaterials, the coating is more delicate and the brightness is higher, so the high-light effect of the paper base can be directly reflected without calender, which can match high-precision photos and image printing, and has water resistance.
